Feets / Collection / My build Well, here we go again

Some of you might recognize these boomsticks from previous posts over the last 2 years. Unfortunately my previous account was banned as someone thought I was shortening firearms illegally (appealed decision). In the meantime, I’d like to once again offer the legalese.

Firearms CAN legally be shortened in Canada. You cannot cut the barrel(s) below 18” on a manual action, or 18.5” on a semi auto (you can cut a semi auto between 18”-18.4”, but then you have to register it as restricted). The overall length, regardless of action, cannot be cut below 26”.

Please see all tape measure measurements to confirm these firearms are completely legal.

Sad my old account of two years with lots of footage of these guys got banned, but I shan’t give up and continue posting no matter what, and informing people these are indeed completely legal haha

Someone had a post the other day asking for gunsmith recommendations. I mentioned one I use that fit the OP’s needs and mentioned some of the work they do. Unfortunately someone reported it and it was deemed a “transaction” by reddit mods. Go figure, kind of shitty but, oh well
